Sky Sharks, Meet Sharknado! Tech Innovation From Nikon! - IMRAN™


Sky Sharks, Meet Sharknado! Tech Innovation From Nikon! - IMRAN™ 

This news item caught my attention today. Even though I had not (and would not) see the movies Sky Sharks or Sharknado, the movie references came to mind immediately. 

"Nikon unveils sharkskin-inspired riblet technology for aviation and power"  ( https://lnkd.in/ebTXK9qW ). It basically is a biomimetic technology which mimics the amazing surface structure of shark skin. Nikon’s proprietary laser processing creates riblets which are artificial microstructures which resemble the fine scales on a shark’s skin. The materials have many applications from aviation to power generation.
